Is this still the best way or is there another method I should consider.
(It would be great if I could have separate dbs for author and title):
... you could setup two databases. One will be a normal one while the
second one is greated with a config file that has the following:
keyword_factor: 10
text_factor: 0
title_factor: 0
heading_factor_1: 0
heading_factor_2: 0
heading_factor_3: 0
heading_factor_4: 0
heading_factor_5: 0
heading_factor_6: 0
